Preface

Reactive programming is the programming paradigm for handling continuous changing messages and their notifications. Instead of developing static value changes, we develop data changes. This slight difference leaves the developer facing issues regarding high speed messaging systems that handle such messages in a completely new way. Reactive programming means writing functions that transform messages. This means that something, such as an exception within the reactive world became a message. This book will cover Reactive programming with Reactive extensions for .NET in an increasing complex approach. In the final chapters, the reader will find real-world solutions and learn about F# functional reactive programming.
